The car park itself is used by shoppers but the site is not owned by the retailers themselves

City Council’s planning officers have recommended the plans be approved however, ahead of a meeting on Thursday where the matter could be decided.

A report by officers said the proposed homes, “are considered to tie in well with the residential dwellings in the immediate vicinity and are not considered to harm the character of the area.” Under the scheme, access to the car park from Gledhow Rise, which runs along the side of Home Bargains, would be closed off. A new access road would be built between two houses on Oakwell Mount, on the other side of the store.Three trees would be lost if the scheme is allowed, though the developers have promised to plant nine new ones.
